Fairy Road Return [comprehensive]
Chapter 407 Six Golden Flowers - 6
The sudden voice in her mind made Meng Linshu froze all of a sudden. She had gotten used to the system's sudden pronunciation during this time, and she returned to normal after a while.
Meng Linshu made a perfect psychological construction for herself, and the maids hurriedly raised the curtain and stepped into the main hall. The gentle expression on her face was even gentler than before.However, considering what happened to the eldest cousin, Meng Linshu put away the angelic smile on his face in the past, with a hint of worry.
"Grandmother?" Meng Linshu hesitated and said, "Big cousin, are you okay?"
Luo Chuyun's eyes were still red and swollen, she shook her head slightly, Lu Shi waved her hand: "It's okay, Shu'er, don't worry, my old bones are not dead yet, I won't let outsiders bully Yun'er."
Five granddaughters, one granddaughter, the eldest granddaughter poured the most effort into her, so she loves the eldest granddaughter the most. Originally, she planned to raise a concubine from the Luo family, but who knew that his son would not agree to it, so the eldest granddaughter Before it was too late, he made a marriage covenant with Duke Xinguo's mansion, so as to avoid the concubine selection feast of the eldest prince, second prince, and third prince, but he didn't want his son to choose and choose, and he still chose an embroidered pillow, so he might as well be a concubine Woolen cloth.
After the eldest granddaughter, this granddaughter is the only flesh and blood left by her daughter. If she doesn't love her, who will love her?The son-in-law of the Meng family has already remarried to his successor, and there is no shortage of sons and daughters under his knees. He can only fulfill his due responsibilities to the eldest daughter, and there will be no more.
Luo Chuyun lowered her head, thinking in her heart, this marriage must be cancelled, even if the Xinguo government sends that bitch away, she will not agree, and as for her father, she knows what her father means Apparently he didn't want to get involved in the battle for the heir apparent, so he took the trouble to choose the Xinguo Duke's Mansion for her, but if he can manage this ten years, what about the next ten years?
"Shu'er, you go back to your yard for dinner. Grandmother doesn't need you to wait here." Shi Lu dismissed her granddaughter. She wanted to drive her eldest granddaughter to rest, but Luo Chuyun didn't dare. That would be bad, my father said.She is the most beloved granddaughter of her grandmother, but her father is her own son, and her and her father's position in her grandmother's heart must be her father's most important.
Meng Linshu obeyed her grandmother's words very much, she saluted and exited the main hall, and habitually nodded and smiled at the two maids who were pulling the curtain.
[Get 2 points for smiling]
The system's voice didn't stop Meng Linshu, she left without stopping.The prestige value of her system is divided into two aspects: smile value and gratitude value. The so-called smile value means that when she smiles at others, others feel that she is beautiful and beautiful. This is the smile value, but the smile value has always been very small. They are all increased by 1 point or 2 points. As for the increase of a large value, then I don’t know how to touch the hearts of others.
The gratitude value is to help others. When others thank you, this value is usually a lot. Even if it is a small favor, there will be 10 points of gratitude. .
And the aunts brought their daughters back to the yard, and hurriedly asked the maids to go to the big kitchen to get dinner. Aunt Mo once again told her daughter Luo Chuyu not to be too much. Regardless of whether the marriage was terminated or not, the Xuanping Hou Mansion would suffer criticism from the outside world.
"Auntie, don't worry, Luo Chuyun's marriage has nothing to do with me?" Zheng Tao is a soft bag, and it's fine if the eldest sister doesn't marry him.
Aunt Mo glanced at her daughter suspiciously. She still knew her daughter well.When she is sensible, she should worry less, but she is even more worried, because she is afraid that her daughter will hold back and wait to play tricks. When something goes wrong, she will not be able to deal with it, so what should I do?
"It's good that you know it. Don't hide anything from my aunt, otherwise my aunt won't help you if something happens."
Luo Chuyu was angry in her heart. Although my aunt was kind to her, she couldn't compare to her younger brother. No matter what troubles he caused in the future, she would help him.
Yuheyuan, the courtyard where Aunt Zhong lives, because there are few women in Luo Bang, each aunt has her own courtyard, so there is no need for the old lady to serve her, and everyone takes their daughters to eat in their own courtyard.
Aunt Zhong's daily nagging is nothing more than to let Luo Chulan and the big girl Luo Chuyun establish a good relationship. In the past, Luo Chulan promised on the face, but she was quite upset in her heart because her aunt cared more about Luo Chuyun. , let her bear with everything, don't fight with Luo Chuyun, when did she fight with Luo Chuyun?
Luo Chulan, who has changed her core, doesn't have the heart to fight with her sisters now. She needs to spend these three months to half a year to slowly improve her appearance. Men are superficial animals, and they don't look good. Beautiful, how could he get in touch with and understand the connotation further?
Luo Chulan decided to have dinner, and later went to the elder brother's yard to borrow some books from the elder brother. If she didn't have any, he asked the elder brother to help her buy some outside. These days, when you come and go, their brothers and sisters also said It's time to talk.
Miao Yunxuan, the courtyard where Aunt He lived, at the moment the food was set on the table in the room, the mother and daughter were eating, and the maids were all sent down by Aunt He to eat.
Luo Chuman took the chopsticks and picked up vegetables and rice quickly. Although she was fast, she had a good posture and she would not make a sound when eating.
These are the rules specially trained by Hou Fu. Even if Luo Chuman is a troublesome character, she is not bad at these basic etiquettes and rules.
However, there are only mother and daughter, and the rule of 'Don't talk when you eat' is not so strict.
Aunt He only ate two mouthfuls of food, and watched her daughter eat. As her daughter grew older, she became less like her, and even less like the master. She was so worried.
"Manman, be good these two days, don't make your father angry, after the big girl's business is over, if you have something bad, you can ask your father for it, understand?"
Aunt He can be said to be earnest, Luo Chuman ate well in twos and twos, put down the chopsticks in her hand, picked up the handkerchief beside her and wiped her mouth gracefully, then rolled her eyes.
"Auntie, am I that stupid?" She is also very smart, okay?
Aunt He smiled wryly. Her daughter is not stupid. Sometimes she acts too impulsively. If she could think twice, she would not be so worried.
Luo Chuman tilted her head, turning a blind eye to the worries that her aunt had been wearing on her face for many years, and she didn't know what her aunt was worried about all day long. My aunt didn't want to have a son like Aunt Zhong, and my aunt didn't care about her father at all. Ke Ke, as far as she can remember, her father has never rested with her aunt, so what is she worried about?
"Auntie, have you noticed that the eldest sister, second sister, third sister, fourth sister, and cousin have become so weird?" Although she didn't say a word in Songhe Hall just now, her eyes were sharp. The sadness is only on the surface, she is not actually sad in her heart.And the second sister has nothing to do with her at all, but the second sister seems a little angry.The third sister was obviously gloating, and the emotion in her eyes couldn't be stopped.The fourth sister is also a low-key figure, she doesn't seem to care whether the elder sister's marriage will be successful or not.
As for the cousin, she has been very gentle with others during this time, but does she think that the cousin is not tired?Laugh when you want to laugh, cry when you want to cry, get angry when you want to be angry, that's right!
Aunt He glared at her again, and sighed: "Don't worry about the big girls, the old lady and wife will worry about it. Anyway, you remember what Auntie said, and don't make trouble with your father again."
Her daughter is a miser, she can hardly get in and out of the silver in her hands, and she tries every means to get money from Lord Hou. She doesn't know what is wrong with her. She has always taught her daughter to keep a low profile, and it is best to be a transparent person. It's the kind of inconspicuous one in the Hou's mansion. When you grow up, you can just choose a decent husband and marry off.
However, the daughter didn't know what was going on, so she grew crooked.
Luo Chuman pursed her lips, and reluctantly agreed to her aunt's words.She will be 13 years old in July, and she is only two years away from Jiji. She has grown up and must consider her own marriage. As a concubine, my aunt has no dowry. Is this money enough?No, I have to try to get some more money from my father, no matter how little I am, I am not afraid of it, and if I accumulate less, I will get more.
Saving money is her top priority, then the second priority is to find a husband and son-in-law. As a concubine, it is best not to get that kind of marriage for her, and the range of options is limited. It's not her turn, I'm afraid that Luo Chuyu is the first thing her father thinks about, so father is not very reliable, everything depends on her, she will plan well.
When Luo Bang came back from the military camp in the outskirts, the servants sent by the Hou Mansion stopped him at the gate of the city, and told him what happened to his eldest daughter, and Luo Bang's face immediately darkened.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, before Luo Bang had time to go to Songhe Hall to meet his mother, the housekeeper came to report that the prince Xin Guogong had brought the young prince.
The current Duke of Xinguo's Mansion is Zheng Xiang. Zheng Xiang is almost 70 years old, but he is not in good health and has been bedridden all year round. His son Zheng Bin is in charge of everything inside and outside the mansion. Zheng Bin has not yet accepted the title , He is still the eldest son, his son Zheng Tao is 20 years old, still studying poetry and books, and plans to participate in Chunwei next year.
Zheng Bin apologized with sincerity. His son Zheng Tao kept his head down from the beginning to the end. Even if his father forced him to say sorry, he seemed reluctant.
Zheng Tao felt that he must have been bewitched today. Although he liked his cousin, he probably didn't think so, but he was not stupid. The status of his cousin was not worthy of him, so she couldn't be his wife no matter what. He would never disregard his own future for his cousin, but today he chose to express his dirty thoughts clearly and plainly in front of his classmates, and it just so happened that his fiancée was meeting with a friend The restaurant happened to hear what he said.
"My son, I'm sorry." Luo Bang didn't say anything to Zheng Bin and his son. He just had a preliminary understanding of the situation. He didn't know the truth, so he needed to ask his mother and daughter.
Luo Bang asked the housekeeper to call the eldest and young master out to accompany the guests, and Luo Jianyi just came back. Although Zheng Tao's words in the restaurant were widely circulated, it was only two hours before and after. Luo Jianyi was in the academy, so how could he know so clearly? of.
Luo Jianyi was born to his original wife, Qin. He is 20 years old this year and is about the same age as Zheng Tao. Because of this in-law relationship, Luo Jianyi and Zheng Tao got very close. Turn a blind eye to Zheng Tao.
Lu Shi and Luo Chuyun waited for Luo Bang for a long time, and heard the servant girl say that the son of Duke Xin Guo and his son had come to plead guilty, Lu Shi's attitude was a little better, and Luo Chuyun kept his head down from the beginning to the end.
The Wang family was still there, but Luo Churan was sent away.
"Mother, it's so strange that this happened, did Zheng Tao really say those words?" Luo Bang still felt strange, even if Zheng Tao really had such thoughts, he only had one or two glasses of wine before selling himself ?
Lu Shi looked at Luo Chuyun, Luo Chuyun blessed his father, choked up and said: "Father, it is absolutely true, my daughter heard it with her own ears. At first, my daughter didn't know that Zheng Shizi was also in the restaurant. My daughter and my cousin were tired from walking." Now, let's rest in the restaurant, who would have heard Zheng Shizi's absurd words, if father doesn't believe it, he can ask someone to ask."
The system's veritaserum is really easy to use, and she doesn't need to worry about it. As long as she agrees to use it, the system can unconsciously pour the veritaserum on Zheng Tao without anyone noticing it.
Luo Bang immediately slammed his fist on the table, angrily said: "The Zheng family is bullying too much!"
Luo Chuyun immediately knelt down and said earnestly, "Father, my daughter doesn't want to marry into Duke Xin's mansion, so I beg my father to cancel the marriage."
A look of hesitation suddenly appeared on Luo Bang's face. Retiring an engagement is not a simple matter. Although this matter is in the hands of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, it has always been a disadvantage for the woman to resign.
Just now Lu Shi had unequivocally agreed to be the granddaughter's decision-maker, but when it came to the interests of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, she suddenly wavered again.
"Father, my daughter would rather be with the ancient Qingdeng Buddha than marry into the Duke of Xinguo's mansion. What Zheng Shizi said did not take Xuanpinghou's mansion into consideration at all. If we compromise, what will the world think? Do you think so?" The Marquis of Xuanping has no backbone, Prince Zheng is plotting against his daughter like that, how dare the Marquis of Xuanping push his daughter into the fire pit?"
Luo Chuyun knew that her father cared most about the interests of the Marquis of Xuanping, as long as she explained the interests, her father would not refuse, not to mention that she had already divorced, the royal family would never want a woman who divorced to be a concubine?
Of course, she doesn't care about the position of the concubine now. She wants to enter the palace. Although the current emperor is about the same age as her father and will die in ten years, she has the palace fighting system. She can definitely keep the emperor alive for a few more years until her Children grow up.
"I will reconsider this matter." After saying that, Luo Bang turned around and left. He still had to go to the front hall to receive guests, but after returning to the front hall, Luo Bang didn't give Zheng Bin and his son a good face. Zheng Bin took one bite at a time. The child is still young, and he speaks indiscriminately. I hope he will not be angry. How can he not be angry?
Looking at Zheng Tao again, Luo Bang used to think that he was a good son-in-law, but today he suddenly finds him unpleasant no matter what he looks at.
"My son, it's too late today, please go back, your son doesn't seem to be here to make amends, it seems that the marriage between our two families has yet to be discussed."
Zheng Bin was also helpless, if it was an empty Marquis Mansion, he would not be afraid of him at all, but although Luo Bang was not very capable, he still had a place in the court.
"Brother Luo, it's my son who didn't hold back his words this time. He made a mistake with the eldest girl in the mansion. Don't worry, he will never dare to have any disrespectful thoughts towards the eldest girl in the future. You see, the two families will hold a wedding next month. Now, if it is cancelled, isn't it a joke for outsiders?"
Zheng Tao drooped his head, he is now a laughing stock, God knows why he is like a bewitched, telling the secret thoughts in his heart to outsiders?
####
Five miles away from the western suburbs of the capital, there is a dilapidated temple. This temple has always been a refuge for beggars. Now there are seven or eight beggars in the temple, eating the food they begged for in front of the fire, talking in one go Listen to the gossip.
Li Xie thinks he is really unlucky, he has been an eunuch, a prince, a piao, a devil, an interstellar prince, a prince of the Qing Dynasty, and a star, so he should not worry about food and clothing.
As a result, this time he turned into a 15-year-old little beggar with no flesh and ragged clothes. The only thing that made him feel better was that the little beggar didn't emit any foul smell.
"Zhuzi, Pingzi has a high fever, what should I do?" The little beggar had very little memory, and Li Xie merged the little beggar's memory without even thinking about it. He was staring at the night outside the ruined temple in a daze.
Hearing Lao Caitou's voice, Li Xie quickly came to his senses. Now the first thing to bear is how to get rid of poverty and become rich. Of course, this is too simple for him, but this little beggar still has a grandfather and elder brother to take care of, although the three of them People are not related by blood, but he can't just leave them alone.
For beggars with no homes and no money, getting sick is tantamount to death.
Li Xie secretly took Pingzi's pulse, immediately hugged Pingzi whose face was flushed red, and told Lao Caitou to pack up their daily things, and the two walked out of the ruined temple in the dark.
The remaining beggars just glanced at the backs of the two people who walked out, curled their lips, they were all burnt like that, is there any money to cure the disease?If not, you will have to wait to die!
Lao Caitou is over 60 years old. He is an old beggar with no special background. He has never been married in his life.
After moving to the capital, Lao Caitou huddled with two little beggars, Zhuzi and Pingzi, so that the money and food they collected would not be easily robbed by other beggars.
However, Lao Caitou and Pingzi have known each other for a longer time, and they have only known Zhuzi for only three months.
"Zhuzi, where are we going?" Lao Caitou kept pace. It was March, the weather was fine during the day, but the wind was still blowing cold at night. The clothes they were wearing were very thin, and Lao Caitou's calf trembled when he walked.
Li Xie caressed Pingzi's forehead, and replied, "Go to Liujiazhuang to find a doctor in the village." As a doctor, he usually would not refuse to save him. The gate of the city has been closed, and there is no other choice but the nearby villages.
When Lao Cai first heard it, although he was worried about the money for the medicine, the top priority was Pingzi's illness. As for the money for the medicine, they should figure out a way.
There is moon and starlight tonight, so you don’t have to worry about it being too dark to see the road. After walking for less than half an hour, you came to a village. The village was silent, but it seemed that you heard footsteps from outside. The dog suddenly barked one after another.
As beggars who have lived in the capital and its surrounding area for three years, Lao Caitou and the others are very familiar with the surrounding area of the capital ten miles away, so they did not get lost all the way to Liujiazhuang.
As for the doctor in Liujiazhuang, Liujiazhuang itself is a wealthy village, and the village is quite well equipped, so there are naturally doctors, and it is at the foot of Wangfeng Mountain on the left side of the village.
This time the doctor's stone house was still lit, Li Xie held Pingzi in his arms, and signaled Lao Caitou to knock on the door, Lao Caitou gritted his teeth and knocked on the door.
"Doctor Lin, are you there?" Old Cai's voice trembled and authentically, a gust of wind blew, and the old man shivered.
"Who is it?" A moment later, a middle-aged man holding a candle opened the door and saw the three of Li Xie, frowning: "What are you doing?"
Old Caitou hurriedly bowed and said, "Doctor Lin, my boy has a high fever, which has been burning for a day, and there is really nothing to do, so I came to disturb Doctor Lin and begged Doctor Lin to save him."
As soon as Li Xie sent Pingzi in his arms to Dr. Lin, Dr. Lin felt for Pingzi's pulse with his hand, and his face changed drastically: "It's all burnt like this, so you know how to send him to the doctor?"
Immediately, Doctor Lin asked Li Xie to enter the door with Pingzi in his arms, and Lao Caitou followed into the room, thanking Doctor Lin non-stop. Only then did Doctor Lin see clearly the clothes on the two of them, and immediately understood everything.
Dr. Lin immediately grabbed a pair of medicine and asked his medicine boy to decoct it, while he used some physical means to cool down Pingzi first.
Li Xie breathed a sigh of relief, if it wasn't too late today, he would have been able to grab a dose of medicine for Pingzi in the field, but Pingzi couldn't wait, so he had to find the nearest doctor.
After the medicine boy boiled the medicine and Pingzi drank it, within half an hour, his body temperature slowly dropped.
"Don't be too happy, tonight his high fever will come back again, and he will be fine only after tonight." Although Doctor Lin's face is still so stinky, his hands are not slow.
Li Xie and Lao Cai bowed to Dr. Lin to thank him: "Thank you, Dr. Lin."
As for the money for the medicine, after dawn tomorrow, Li Xie plans to take a trip to the mountains to catch some wild game or dig up ginseng roots. Isn't that enough money?
That night, Li Xie and Lao Cai fought together in front of Pingzi's hospital bed. Pingzi's fever went back and forth, and finally fell down in the middle of the night and never rose again.
After dawn, Li Xie and Lao Caitou ate a bowl of porridge at Dr. Lin's place. Before Pingzi woke up, Li Xie helped clean up the dishes and said to Lao Caitou: "Grandpa Cai, look at Pingzi, I Go out and find a way to get some money, and come back before dark at the latest."
Lao Cai nodded his head, Li Xie looked at Pingzi who hadn't woken up on the hospital bed, and then bid farewell to Doctor Lin.
Li Xie really walked towards Wang Fengshan, stuffing fruit into his mouth while walking. Speaking of which, the space he snatched from Jing Huan was still as dilapidated as before, but it seemed to be recovering slowly, Li Xie didn't care It didn't put anything in it either, the fruit still exists in this space itself.
Walking to the depths of Wangfeng Mountain, he saw some pheasants and hares, caught four or five of them, and drilled deeper. Sure enough, he found a 50-year-old ginseng under a rocky cliff. Solve the current predicament.But when he was walking out, he met the hunters near Wangfeng Mountain. They didn't look very good at him. Li Xie wondered, could it be that they robbed their prey?
Thinking about it this way, he kept one pheasant and sold the other two pheasants and two hares to two hunters at a low price for about a tael of silver. At noon, he went back to Dr. Lin's house first, and handed over the pheasant to Dr. Lin, just for food and medical expenses.
Doctor Lin didn't say anything, a pheasant was indeed worth the medical expenses and food expenses, so Doctor Lin immediately asked the cook to kill the pheasant and planned to eat it at noon.
During this period, Lao Cai looked at Li Xie frequently, he didn't know where Li Xie got his skills, how did he hunt the pheasant?Is it picked up from a trap set by Orion?
Li Xie didn't explain anything to Lao Caitou. After he had lunch, he told Lao Caitou that he would go to the city. He planned to turn ginseng into money. With the money he got from selling ginseng, he should be able to find someone in the capital. A safe place to stay.
After going to the city to sell ginseng in the afternoon, Lixie went to look at the houses where the common people live in the Southwest District. The military master didn't pay much attention to them, but buying or renting a house is not allowed, you must have a household registration or road guide.
When he returned to Liujiazhuang, the sky was about to get dark, and Pingzi had already woken up. Knowing that Lao Caitou and Li Xie sent him to see a doctor, he was both moved and at a loss.
"Okay, Pingzi, don't worry, we will live a good life." Li Xie didn't tell them about the ginseng. When he planned to leave tomorrow, he settled the household registration and road guide, and then told them .
Pingzi himself was weak, he had a high fever for a day and a night, he would be very weak, he said weakly: "I know." He turned over to face the wall, sobbing silently.
Li Xie pretended not to hear it, and asked, "Pingzi, I plan to find a way to solve our household registration problem. If you register for household registration, what's your name?"
Pingzi stopped sobbing now, and he was still a little dazed, household registration is something that wandering beggars like them hope for.
When Lao Caitou came in, Li Xie was dumbfounded when Li Xie said that, but it was a good thing, they were at a loss after they got excited, and Li Xie didn't care about the hesitant expression on Lao Caitou and Pingzi's face. see.
Since Lao Caitou and Pingzi are illiterate people, even if Li Xie is well-educated, he can't say that he is literate, so when Lao Caitou was chatting with Dr. Lin, he asked Dr. Lin to name Li Xie and Pingzi. Both of them have the same surname as Cai, because they don't know what their surname is. Lao Cai's real name is Cai Yougen, but he hasn't used it for many years, and he almost forgot his name.
Doctor Lin quickly gave two names, Cai Chengen and Cai Jianian, and Pingzi directly took Cai Chengen's name, so Lixie had to be called Cai Jianian.
Meng Linshu made a perfect psychological construction for herself, and the maids hurriedly raised the curtain and stepped into the main hall. The gentle expression on her face was even gentler than before.However, considering what happened to the eldest cousin, Meng Linshu put away the angelic smile on his face in the past, with a hint of worry.
"Grandmother?" Meng Linshu hesitated and said, "Big cousin, are you okay?"
Luo Chuyun's eyes were still red and swollen, she shook her head slightly, Lu Shi waved her hand: "It's okay, Shu'er, don't worry, my old bones are not dead yet, I won't let outsiders bully Yun'er."
Five granddaughters, one granddaughter, the eldest granddaughter poured the most effort into her, so she loves the eldest granddaughter the most. Originally, she planned to raise a concubine from the Luo family, but who knew that his son would not agree to it, so the eldest granddaughter Before it was too late, he made a marriage covenant with Duke Xinguo's mansion, so as to avoid the concubine selection feast of the eldest prince, second prince, and third prince, but he didn't want his son to choose and choose, and he still chose an embroidered pillow, so he might as well be a concubine Woolen cloth.
After the eldest granddaughter, this granddaughter is the only flesh and blood left by her daughter. If she doesn't love her, who will love her?The son-in-law of the Meng family has already remarried to his successor, and there is no shortage of sons and daughters under his knees. He can only fulfill his due responsibilities to the eldest daughter, and there will be no more.
Luo Chuyun lowered her head, thinking in her heart, this marriage must be cancelled, even if the Xinguo government sends that bitch away, she will not agree, and as for her father, she knows what her father means Apparently he didn't want to get involved in the battle for the heir apparent, so he took the trouble to choose the Xinguo Duke's Mansion for her, but if he can manage this ten years, what about the next ten years?
"Shu'er, you go back to your yard for dinner. Grandmother doesn't need you to wait here." Shi Lu dismissed her granddaughter. She wanted to drive her eldest granddaughter to rest, but Luo Chuyun didn't dare. That would be bad, my father said.She is the most beloved granddaughter of her grandmother, but her father is her own son, and her and her father's position in her grandmother's heart must be her father's most important.
Meng Linshu obeyed her grandmother's words very much, she saluted and exited the main hall, and habitually nodded and smiled at the two maids who were pulling the curtain.

The system's voice didn't stop Meng Linshu, she left without stopping.The prestige value of her system is divided into two aspects: smile value and gratitude value.

And the aunts brought their daughters back to the yard, and hurriedly asked the maids to go to the big kitchen to get dinner. Aunt Mo once again told her daughter Luo Chuyu not to be too much. Regardless of whether the marriage was terminated or not, the Xuanping Hou Mansion would suffer criticism from the outside world.
"Auntie, don't worry, Luo Chuyun's marriage has nothing to do with me?" Zheng Tao is a soft bag, and it's fine if the eldest sister doesn't marry him.
Aunt Mo glanced at her daughter suspiciously. She still knew her daughter well.When she is sensible, she should worry less, but she is even more worried, because she is afraid that her daughter will hold back and wait to play tricks. When something goes wrong, she will not be able to deal with it, so what should I do?
"It's good that you know it. Don't hide anything from my aunt, otherwise my aunt won't help you if something happens."
Luo Chuyu was angry in her heart. Although my aunt was kind to her, she couldn't compare to her younger brother. No matter what troubles he caused in the future, she would help him.
Yuheyuan, the courtyard where Aunt Zhong lives, because there are few women in Luo Bang, each aunt has her own courtyard, so there is no need for the old lady to serve her, and everyone takes their daughters to eat in their own courtyard.
Aunt Zhong's daily nagging is nothing more than to let Luo Chulan and the big girl Luo Chuyun establish a good relationship. In the past, Luo Chulan promised on the face, but she was quite upset in her heart because her aunt cared more about Luo Chuyun. , let her bear with everything, don't fight with Luo Chuyun, when did she fight with Luo Chuyun?
Luo Chulan, who has changed her core, doesn't have the heart to fight with her sisters now. She needs to spend these three months to half a year to slowly improve her appearance. Men are superficial animals, and they don't look good. Beautiful, how could he get in touch with and understand the connotation further?
Luo Chulan decided to have dinner, and later went to the elder brother's yard to borrow some books from the elder brother. If she didn't have any, he asked the elder brother to help her buy some outside. These days, when you come and go, their brothers and sisters also said It's time to talk.
Miao Yunxuan, the courtyard where Aunt He lived, at the moment the food was set on the table in the room, the mother and daughter were eating, and the maids were all sent down by Aunt He to eat.
Luo Chuman took the chopsticks and picked up vegetables and rice quickly. Although she was fast, she had a good posture and she would not make a sound when eating.
These are the rules specially trained by Hou Fu. Even if Luo Chuman is a troublesome character, she is not bad at these basic etiquettes and rules.
However, there are only mother and daughter, and the rule of 'Don't talk when you eat' is not so strict.
Aunt He only ate two mouthfuls of food, and watched her daughter eat. As her daughter grew older, she became less like her, and even less like the master. She was so worried.
"Manman, be good these two days, don't make your father angry, after the big girl's business is over, if you have something bad, you can ask your father for it, understand?"

"Auntie, am I that stupid?" She is also very smart, okay?
Aunt He smiled wryly. Her daughter is not stupid. Sometimes she acts too impulsively. If she could think twice, she would not be so worried.
Luo Chuman tilted her head, turning a blind eye to the worries that her aunt had been wearing on her face for many years, and she didn't know what her aunt was worried about all day long. My aunt didn't want to have a son like Aunt Zhong, and my aunt didn't care about her father at all. Ke Ke, as far as she can remember, her father has never rested with her aunt, so what is she worried about?
"Auntie, have you noticed that the eldest sister, second sister, third sister, fourth sister, and cousin have become so weird?" Although she didn't say a word in Songhe Hall just now, her eyes were sharp. The sadness is only on the surface, she is not actually sad in her heart.And the second sister has nothing to do with her at all, but the second sister seems a little angry.The third sister was obviously gloating, and the emotion in her eyes couldn't be stopped.The fourth sister is also a low-key figure, she doesn't seem to care whether the elder sister's marriage will be successful or not.
As for the cousin, she has been very gentle with others during this time, but does she think that the cousin is not tired?Laugh when you want to laugh, cry when you want to cry, get angry when you want to be angry, that's right!
Aunt He glared at her again, and sighed: "Don't worry about the big girls, the old lady and wife will worry about it. Anyway, you remember what Auntie said, and don't make trouble with your father again."
Her daughter is a miser, she can hardly get in and out of the silver in her hands, and she tries every means to get money from Lord Hou. She doesn't know what is wrong with her. She has always taught her daughter to keep a low profile, and it is best to be a transparent person. It's the kind of inconspicuous one in the Hou's mansion. When you grow up, you can just choose a decent husband and marry off.
However, the daughter didn't know what was going on, so she grew crooked.
Luo Chuman pursed her lips, and reluctantly agreed to her aunt's words.She will be 13 years old in July, and she is only two years away from Jiji. She has grown up and must consider her own marriage. As a concubine, my aunt has no dowry. Is this money enough?No, I have to try to get some more money from my father, no matter how little I am, I am not afraid of it, and if I accumulate less, I will get more.
Saving money is her top priority, then the second priority is to find a husband and son-in-law. As a concubine, it is best not to get that kind of marriage for her, and the range of options is limited. It's not her turn, I'm afraid that Luo Chuyu is the first thing her father thinks about, so father is not very reliable, everything depends on her, she will plan well.
When Luo Bang came back from the military camp in the outskirts, the servants sent by the Hou Mansion stopped him at the gate of the city, and told him what happened to his eldest daughter, and Luo Bang's face immediately darkened.
As soon as he returned to the mansion, before Luo Bang had time to go to Songhe Hall to meet his mother, the housekeeper came to report that the prince Xin Guogong had brought the young prince.
The current Duke of Xinguo's Mansion is Zheng Xiang. Zheng Xiang is almost 70 years old, but he is not in good health and has been bedridden all year round. His son Zheng Bin is in charge of everything inside and outside the mansion. Zheng Bin has not yet accepted the title , He is still the eldest son, his son Zheng Tao is 20 years old, still studying poetry and books, and plans to participate in Chunwei next year.
Zheng Bin apologized with sincerity. His son Zheng Tao kept his head down from the beginning to the end. Even if his father forced him to say sorry, he seemed reluctant.
Zheng Tao felt that he must have been bewitched today. Although he liked his cousin, he probably didn't think so, but he was not stupid. The status of his cousin was not worthy of him, so she couldn't be his wife no matter what. He would never disregard his own future for his cousin, but today he chose to express his dirty thoughts clearly and plainly in front of his classmates, and it just so happened that his fiancée was meeting with a friend The restaurant happened to hear what he said.
"My son, I'm sorry." Luo Bang didn't say anything to Zheng Bin and his son. He just had a preliminary understanding of the situation. He didn't know the truth, so he needed to ask his mother and daughter.
Luo Bang asked the housekeeper to call the eldest and young master out to accompany the guests, and Luo Jianyi just came back. Although Zheng Tao's words in the restaurant were widely circulated, it was only two hours before and after. Luo Jianyi was in the academy, so how could he know so clearly? of.
Luo Jianyi was born to his original wife, Qin. He is 20 years old this year and is about the same age as Zheng Tao. Because of this in-law relationship, Luo Jianyi and Zheng Tao got very close. Turn a blind eye to Zheng Tao.
Lu Shi and Luo Chuyun waited for Luo Bang for a long time, and heard the servant girl say that the son of Duke Xin Guo and his son had come to plead guilty, Lu Shi's attitude was a little better, and Luo Chuyun kept his head down from the beginning to the end.
The Wang family was still there, but Luo Churan was sent away.
"Mother, it's so strange that this happened, did Zheng Tao really say those words?" Luo Bang still felt strange, even if Zheng Tao really had such thoughts, he only had one or two glasses of wine before selling himself ?
Lu Shi looked at Luo Chuyun, Luo Chuyun blessed his father, choked up and said: "Father, it is absolutely true, my daughter heard it with her own ears. At first, my daughter didn't know that Zheng Shizi was also in the restaurant. My daughter and my cousin were tired from walking." Now, let's rest in the restaurant, who would have heard Zheng Shizi's absurd words, if father doesn't believe it, he can ask someone to ask."
The system's veritaserum is really easy to use, and she doesn't need to worry about it. As long as she agrees to use it, the system can unconsciously pour the veritaserum on Zheng Tao without anyone noticing it.
Luo Bang immediately slammed his fist on the table, angrily said: "The Zheng family is bullying too much!"
Luo Chuyun immediately knelt down and said earnestly, "Father, my daughter doesn't want to marry into Duke Xin's mansion, so I beg my father to cancel the marriage."
A look of hesitation suddenly appeared on Luo Bang's face. Retiring an engagement is not a simple matter. Although this matter is in the hands of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, it has always been a disadvantage for the woman to resign.
Just now Lu Shi had unequivocally agreed to be the granddaughter's decision-maker, but when it came to the interests of the Xuanping Hou Mansion, she suddenly wavered again.
"Father, my daughter would rather be with the ancient Qingdeng Buddha than marry into the Duke of Xinguo's mansion. What Zheng Shizi said did not take Xuanpinghou's mansion into consideration at all. If we compromise, what will the world think? Do you think so?" The Marquis of Xuanping has no backbone, Prince Zheng is plotting against his daughter like that, how dare the Marquis of Xuanping push his daughter into the fire pit?"
Luo Chuyun knew that her father cared most about the interests of the Marquis of Xuanping, as long as she explained the interests, her father would not refuse, not to mention that she had already divorced, the royal family would never want a woman who divorced to be a concubine?
Of course, she doesn't care about the position of the concubine now. She wants to enter the palace. Although the current emperor is about the same age as her father and will die in ten years, she has the palace fighting system. She can definitely keep the emperor alive for a few more years until her Children grow up.
"I will reconsider this matter." After saying that, Luo Bang turned around and left. He still had to go to the front hall to receive guests, but after returning to the front hall, Luo Bang didn't give Zheng Bin and his son a good face. Zheng Bin took one bite at a time. The child is still young, and he speaks indiscriminately. I hope he will not be angry. How can he not be angry?
Looking at Zheng Tao again, Luo Bang used to think that he was a good son-in-law, but today he suddenly finds him unpleasant no matter what he looks at.
"My son, it's too late today, please go back, your son doesn't seem to be here to make amends, it seems that the marriage between our two families has yet to be discussed."
Zheng Bin was also helpless, if it was an empty Marquis Mansion, he would not be afraid of him at all, but although Luo Bang was not very capable, he still had a place in the court.
"Brother Luo, it's my son who didn't hold back his words this time. He made a mistake with the eldest girl in the mansion. Don't worry, he will never dare to have any disrespectful thoughts towards the eldest girl in the future. You see, the two families will hold a wedding next month. Now, if it is cancelled, isn't it a joke for outsiders?"
Zheng Tao drooped his head, he is now a laughing stock, God knows why he is like a bewitched, telling the secret thoughts in his heart to outsiders?
####
Five miles away from the western suburbs of the capital, there is a dilapidated temple. This temple has always been a refuge for beggars. Now there are seven or eight beggars in the temple, eating the food they begged for in front of the fire, talking in one go Listen to the gossip.
Li Xie thinks he is really unlucky, he has been an eunuch, a prince, a piao, a devil, an interstellar prince, a prince of the Qing Dynasty, and a star, so he should not worry about food and clothing.
As a result, this time he turned into a 15-year-old little beggar with no flesh and ragged clothes. The only thing that made him feel better was that the little beggar didn't emit any foul smell.
"Zhuzi, Pingzi has a high fever, what should I do?" The little beggar had very little memory, and Li Xie merged the little beggar's memory without even thinking about it. He was staring at the night outside the ruined temple in a daze.
Hearing Lao Caitou's voice, Li Xie quickly came to his senses. Now the first thing to bear is how to get rid of poverty and become rich. Of course, this is too simple for him, but this little beggar still has a grandfather and elder brother to take care of, although the three of them People are not related by blood, but he can't just leave them alone.
For beggars with no homes and no money, getting sick is tantamount to death.
Li Xie secretly took Pingzi's pulse, immediately hugged Pingzi whose face was flushed red, and told Lao Caitou to pack up their daily things, and the two walked out of the ruined temple in the dark.
The remaining beggars just glanced at the backs of the two people who walked out, curled their lips, they were all burnt like that, is there any money to cure the disease?If not, you will have to wait to die!
Lao Caitou is over 60 years old. He is an old beggar with no special background. He has never been married in his life.
After moving to the capital, Lao Caitou huddled with two little beggars, Zhuzi and Pingzi, so that the money and food they collected would not be easily robbed by other beggars.
However, Lao Caitou and Pingzi have known each other for a longer time, and they have only known Zhuzi for only three months.
"Zhuzi, where are we going?" Lao Caitou kept pace. It was March, the weather was fine during the day, but the wind was still blowing cold at night. The clothes they were wearing were very thin, and Lao Caitou's calf trembled when he walked.
Li Xie caressed Pingzi's forehead, and replied, "Go to Liujiazhuang to find a doctor in the village." As a doctor, he usually would not refuse to save him. The gate of the city has been closed, and there is no other choice but the nearby villages.
When Lao Cai first heard it, although he was worried about the money for the medicine, the top priority was Pingzi's illness. As for the money for the medicine, they should figure out a way.
There is moon and starlight tonight, so you don’t have to worry about it being too dark to see the road. After walking for less than half an hour, you came to a village. The village was silent, but it seemed that you heard footsteps from outside. The dog suddenly barked one after another.
As beggars who have lived in the capital and its surrounding area for three years, Lao Caitou and the others are very familiar with the surrounding area of the capital ten miles away, so they did not get lost all the way to Liujiazhuang.
As for the doctor in Liujiazhuang, Liujiazhuang itself is a wealthy village, and the village is quite well equipped, so there are naturally doctors, and it is at the foot of Wangfeng Mountain on the left side of the village.
This time the doctor's stone house was still lit, Li Xie held Pingzi in his arms, and signaled Lao Caitou to knock on the door, Lao Caitou gritted his teeth and knocked on the door.
"Doctor Lin, are you there?" Old Cai's voice trembled and authentically, a gust of wind blew, and the old man shivered.
"Who is it?" A moment later, a middle-aged man holding a candle opened the door and saw the three of Li Xie, frowning: "What are you doing?"
Old Caitou hurriedly bowed and said, "Doctor Lin, my boy has a high fever, which has been burning for a day, and there is really nothing to do, so I came to disturb Doctor Lin and begged Doctor Lin to save him."
As soon as Li Xie sent Pingzi in his arms to Dr. Lin, Dr. Lin felt for Pingzi's pulse with his hand, and his face changed drastically: "It's all burnt like this, so you know how to send him to the doctor?"
Immediately, Doctor Lin asked Li Xie to enter the door with Pingzi in his arms, and Lao Caitou followed into the room, thanking Doctor Lin non-stop. Only then did Doctor Lin see clearly the clothes on the two of them, and immediately understood everything.
Dr. Lin immediately grabbed a pair of medicine and asked his medicine boy to decoct it, while he used some physical means to cool down Pingzi first.
Li Xie breathed a sigh of relief, if it wasn't too late today, he would have been able to grab a dose of medicine for Pingzi in the field, but Pingzi couldn't wait, so he had to find the nearest doctor.
After the medicine boy boiled the medicine and Pingzi drank it, within half an hour, his body temperature slowly dropped.
"Don't be too happy, tonight his high fever will come back again, and he will be fine only after tonight." Although Doctor Lin's face is still so stinky, his hands are not slow.
Li Xie and Lao Cai bowed to Dr. Lin to thank him: "Thank you, Dr. Lin."
As for the money for the medicine, after dawn tomorrow, Li Xie plans to take a trip to the mountains to catch some wild game or dig up ginseng roots. Isn't that enough money?
That night, Li Xie and Lao Cai fought together in front of Pingzi's hospital bed. Pingzi's fever went back and forth, and finally fell down in the middle of the night and never rose again.
After dawn, Li Xie and Lao Caitou ate a bowl of porridge at Dr. Lin's place. Before Pingzi woke up, Li Xie helped clean up the dishes and said to Lao Caitou: "Grandpa Cai, look at Pingzi, I Go out and find a way to get some money, and come back before dark at the latest."
Lao Cai nodded his head, Li Xie looked at Pingzi who hadn't woken up on the hospital bed, and then bid farewell to Doctor Lin.
Li Xie really walked towards Wang Fengshan, stuffing fruit into his mouth while walking. Speaking of which, the space he snatched from Jing Huan was still as dilapidated as before, but it seemed to be recovering slowly, Li Xie didn't care It didn't put anything in it either, the fruit still exists in this space itself.
Walking to the depths of Wangfeng Mountain, he saw some pheasants and hares, caught four or five of them, and drilled deeper. Sure enough, he found a 50-year-old ginseng under a rocky cliff. Solve the current predicament.But when he was walking out, he met the hunters near Wangfeng Mountain. They didn't look very good at him. Li Xie wondered, could it be that they robbed their prey?
Thinking about it this way, he kept one pheasant and sold the other two pheasants and two hares to two hunters at a low price for about a tael of silver. At noon, he went back to Dr. Lin's house first, and handed over the pheasant to Dr. Lin, just for food and medical expenses.
Doctor Lin didn't say anything, a pheasant was indeed worth the medical expenses and food expenses, so Doctor Lin immediately asked the cook to kill the pheasant and planned to eat it at noon.
During this period, Lao Cai looked at Li Xie frequently, he didn't know where Li Xie got his skills, how did he hunt the pheasant?Is it picked up from a trap set by Orion?
Li Xie didn't explain anything to Lao Caitou. After he had lunch, he told Lao Caitou that he would go to the city. He planned to turn ginseng into money. With the money he got from selling ginseng, he should be able to find someone in the capital. A safe place to stay.
After going to the city to sell ginseng in the afternoon, Lixie went to look at the houses where the common people live in the Southwest District. The military master didn't pay much attention to them, but buying or renting a house is not allowed, you must have a household registration or road guide.
When he returned to Liujiazhuang, the sky was about to get dark, and Pingzi had already woken up. Knowing that Lao Caitou and Li Xie sent him to see a doctor, he was both moved and at a loss.
"Okay, Pingzi, don't worry, we will live a good life." Li Xie didn't tell them about the ginseng. When he planned to leave tomorrow, he settled the household registration and road guide, and then told them .
Pingzi himself was weak, he had a high fever for a day and a night, he would be very weak, he said weakly: "I know." He turned over to face the wall, sobbing silently.
Li Xie pretended not to hear it, and asked, "Pingzi, I plan to find a way to solve our household registration problem. If you register for household registration, what's your name?"
Pingzi stopped sobbing now, and he was still a little dazed, household registration is something that wandering beggars like them hope for.
When Lao Caitou came in, Li Xie was dumbfounded when Li Xie said that, but it was a good thing, they were at a loss after they got excited, and Li Xie didn't care about the hesitant expression on Lao Caitou and Pingzi's face. see.
Since Lao Caitou and Pingzi are illiterate people, even if Li Xie is well-educated, he can't say that he is literate, so when Lao Caitou was chatting with Dr. Lin, he asked Dr. Lin to name Li Xie and Pingzi. Both of them have the same surname as Cai, because they don't know what their surname is. Lao Cai's real name is Cai Yougen, but he hasn't used it for many years, and he almost forgot his name.
Doctor Lin quickly gave two names, Cai Chengen and Cai Jianian, and Pingzi directly took Cai Chengen's name, so Lixie had to be called Cai Jianian.
